This is the last one


In this last blog of the semester, I have to talk about English, and my experience in this university regarding to this subject.
I think that it is planned in a very didactic way; it was not at all like school teaches English because we barely had any traditional classes. We used a lot of multimedia contents which we combined with written activities of the book and oral interactions. I enjoyed the movie we watched; also I think it is a very useful way to improve listening and understanding skills.
There was always a part of the class that we used to make blog entries in which we had to talk about different topics and the numbers of words increased every week. It became very challenging and most of the time I had no idea what to blog about, but it was a fun alternative to the traditional kind of learning a subject.
I think there are a lot of things that I have to fix and improve according to English, like my oral interaction skills and my vocabulary, I constantly have troubles with the way I talk, because my lack of vocabulary restricts my oral interactions and sometimes I end up saying something that I was not planning to say. I think I missed the opportunity to talk in English with my mom –she is studying something related to this language- and I will try to improve my fluency doing that.
Finally, and connected with what I just said, I’m not using English so much in my routine, because even though I have the opportunity to talk with somebody in this language, I don’t take it; I think it’s because I’m too lazy to do this. Nevertheless, I always try to watch the TV series that I like with subtitles in order to learn new words J 
Bye!
